Default My 95 LS4 on DCR and Megans

My ride is running great on these 20in DCR's, the rears are 10's and the fronts are 9's. I just installed megan coilovers about 4 months ago and the ride is perfect. I'm running falken fk452 275/30/20's in the rear and 245/35/20's in the front. Since I deal direct with wald, you know I had to sport the complete lip kit. And since I have a body shop here in Walnut, we did the painting and body work. Anyone need the oem air shocks, I have them along with the AS165x DATA SYSTEM AIR SUS CONTROLLER IN PERFECT CONDITION.

There is something a little odd about the wheels, they look like the stock ls430 wheels but they have a 2 piece look? And they came off of an 05 ls430. Here's a couple pics of them.

oops i overlooked this post Sorry!!

yea that is a crazy cheap price! brand new is about 500 new for a set of the replicas...i have mine for sale including tires for dirt cheap. but those look amazing on the LS's imo.

Default MRR HR3 on my 1991 ls400

I have a local guy selling a set of these rims (NEW MRR HR3 20x8.5 et35 and 20x9.5 et42). Could anybody tell me if I will run into any fitment problems?

you'll be fine, but this isn't the ask questions thread. this is the read what works for other ppl and come to your own conclusions thread.

they look nice if not a little too big for the 1LS, but those dont look like any Trafficstar model i've ever seen or heard of

how sure are you that those are Trafficstars? Im thinking they are works or something else.

rest of the car looks clean, got any 3/4 shots for fitment?
